I went to try one on today. I usually wear a medium in most of my arcteryx tops, but today I tried a small and a medium. They both fit me well for some reason. I don't know which size should I go for? The small was just perfect (snug) but I was still able to move my shoulders and arms freely. The medium was great too but slightly looser than the medium. I am planning to wear a hoodie underneath it if the weather gets colder and I think the small would do just fine. I'll probably going to wear a hardshell of top of them if it's pouring or windy.
So to those who have bought this jacket, how did you size them? Did you size down, true to size, or size up? Thanks a lot!

I found that this jacket runs pretty true to size. I have two other Arcteryx jackets, both in XL, and they are a little on the baggy side, but the Atom LT fits pretty much perfect for me in XL.

Hey Offyatree, I'd say it's true to size. I wear smalls in everything Arcteryx and it remains true for this jacket. This is my favorite piece in my arsenal and either size you're sure to love it. Think about your uses though, are you going to be climbing with it? If so do you have enough room in the sleeves with the small? If you're going to wear a hoodie with the small, it would make sense to wear the hoodie and go try it on one more time to see if you're still comfortable with the small and the sleeves don't feel bunched. It also wouldn't hurt to bring your shell and see how the whole system feels together. Good luck to you!
